Abstract

High quality research data management (RDM) is essential to support state of the art comprehensible and reproducible research processes and, thus, foster the sustainable production of novel and trustworthy research findings. While there are lots of national and international initiatives supporting researchers in all respects of RDM, the local infrastructures provide the foundation for these concepts. In this contribution, we present preliminary results of a study that collects the requirements of researchers on these local infrastructures in all seven higher education research institutions in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (MV).
